Title: Booking system
Inventor: ACKERMAN JONATHAN
Filed: 2006-04-05
Abstract: A method of determining fares for display to a user using a booking system is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of: converting fare rules into computer code, storing the computer code, receiving flight criteria from a user, identifying candidate fares satisfying the flight criteria received from the user, and retrieving and executing the computer code to determine which of the candidate fares satisfy the fare rules embodied by the computer code. The step of converting fare rules into computer code comprises the steps of: retrieving data defining fare rules, generating interim code that defines the fare rules, and generating the computer code from the interim code. The interim code defines one or more fares rules, and contains identifiers that identify portions of the interim code that specify a fare rule and aspects of that fare rule. The step of generating the computer code from the interim code comprises the steps of: parsing the interim code, generating a hierarchy of code generators relating to the portions of the interim code identified by the identifiers, and executing each code generator to generate computer code relating to the portion of the interim code to which the code generator relates. Each code generator at a higher level in the hierarchy utilises code generated by a code generator directly below in the hierarchy.
